Corner hood makes the Fuchs excavator mobile
This crane truck fits perfectly into the water blue series of construction vehicles. The compact excavator based on the Fuchs model is presented as a self-propelled model on the Magirus Saturn chassis - a WIKING classic and a model building treat! The three-axle corner hood shines as a construction site specialist that could hardly be more contemporary. Especially in the construction boom of the 1960s, construction companies, but also municipalities, helped the tried and tested Fuchs excavator F 301 gain new mobility by quickly building it onto the robust chassis. The corner hood, which has already taken on transport tasks within the water-blue construction site series, was considered indestructible at the time. Many of the Fuchs crane trucks were still in use until the 1990s. The F 301 is considered the best-known Fuchs excavator today, with more than 15,000 units delivered over two decades. Looking back, the success may not be surprising, as the manufacturer continued to develop the excavator over the years of production and also offered numerous work facilities.
